Oil-burner



ELMER G. LANTZ, 0F TILLAMOOK, OREGON.

OIL-BURNER.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Application filed May 20, 1919. Serial No. 298,356.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, ELMER G. LANTz, a citizen of the United States,residing at Tillamook, in the county of Tillamook and State of Oregon,have invented new and useful Improvements in Oil-Burners, of which thefollowing is a specification.

This invention relates to an attachment for oil burners and theprincipal object of the invention is to provide a casing adapted to belocated at the door opening of a stove and receiving the nozzle portionof the burner.

Another object of the invention is to provide means for taking the airfrom said casing and delivering it adjacent the point of combustion.

While my invention may be used on different kinds of burners, it is moreparticularly designed for use with the burner forming the subject matterof Letters-Patent of the United States No. 1,241,404, granted to me onSeptember 25th, 1917.

The invention also consists in certain other features of constructionand in the combination and arrangement of the several parts, to behereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawingsand specifically pointed out in the appended claims.

In describing my invention in detail, leference will be had to theaccompanying drawings wherein like characters denote like orcorresponding parts throughout the several views, and in which Figure 1is a side view of a burner and my attachment connected therewith;

Fig. 2 is a front view of the attachment; and

Fig. 3 is a plan view thereof.

Fig. 4 is a sectional view of a burner and my attachment connectedtherewith.

In these views 1 indicates the generator pipe of the burner throughwhich the oil passes to the nozzle. This nozzle projects the flameagainst the spreader 3 which is movably mounted on the pipe 1. Theconstruction of the burner forms no part of my invention and the detailsthereof will not be described. My invention consists in placing a casing4 around the body part 1 of the nozzle and this casing is carried by aplate 5 which is adapted to be secured within the stove, preferably at apoint around the door opening so that the draft from said opening willpass into the casing. As shown, the plate is provided with an opening 6and the open side of the casing registers with this opening. suitablysecured to the plate. The inside of the casing is provided with anopening 7 to receive the end of the pipe 1 and with a double opening 8through which the nozzle 1x projects. Thus the body part of the nozzlelies within the casin The casing supports a pair of pipes 9 which havetheir ends suitably held tothe inner face of the casing one on each sideof the double opening and the free ends of said pipes are locatedadjacent the flame spreader so as to deliver the air at the point ofcombustion.

It will thus be seen that the Aburner and attachment may be installedwithin the stove without the moving or interfering with the doorthereof. Also that the casing will hold the nozzle out of the way 0f thedoor. The casing also helps to keep the nozzle hot so that there is lesstendency for the vapor to ciol as it passes through the body of the nozze.

What I claim is 1. An attachment for oil burners comprising a casinghaving openings therein to receive the burner and tubes supported bysaid casing for delivering the air therefrom to the point of combustion.

2. An attachment for burners, comprising a supporting plate having anopening therein, a casing having one side open with the open sidesecured around said opening, the other side of the casing havingopenings therein to receive the burner, and a tube carried by said otherside for delivering the air from the casing to the point of combustion.

In testimony whereof I afliX my signature.

ELMER G. LANTZ.

The sides of the casing are Patented Feb. 24, 1920.
